Bake scuplture AFTER this week's class (clay part 3). Please make sure clay sculpture is baked and cooled well before next week's class time (clay part 4). I'd recommend baking it, at the very latest, the day before class next week to allow plenty of time for the clay to cool fully. Baking instructions may vary from brand to brand so please be sure to check the manufactuer's instructions for your clay at 1/2inch thickness. For Original Sculpey, bake in oven on a foil lined baking sheet at 275° F for 30 minutes. Please wait until fully cooled before handeling. Baking should be completed by an adult.
